[New-bugs-announce] [issue13935] Tarfile - Fixed GNU tar header base-256 handling

New submission from Oskar Wycislak <cantorek at gmail.com>:

On line 199 in tarfile.py comparison should be done without chr() because s[0] is an integer.
Also on line 208 there should be no ord() for the same reason.

I think this is fixed in Python 3.3

I'm sorry for not providing a patch but it's late and I do not have mercurial installed.
